Does anyone have a part number for clamps that fit an 11/16 tie rod end? I figured these would be easy to find, but they have eluded me.
I actually tried the ones from Eckler's, and they don't fit. I'm not sure it's the same size sleeve as early Ford. Edit: I think I can make these work. Not sure why the sleeve is split on both sides. Appears to have come that way.
Contact this fellow and see if has them. https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=279309&highlight=tie+rod+end+clamps Sleeve is split on both sides to make it easier for the clamp to compress against the threads. Otherwise it would be very difficult to exert enough uniform clamping pressure tighten the sleeve against the threads.
I was just thinking that I had replaced a lot of adjuster sleeves over the years that I did frontend work but never replaced a clamp by it's self. They have some on closeout on Rock auto for 2.44 a sleeve or Moog for a few bucks more. Locally at O'Reilly's is 29 bucks or you can get the moog on Amazon for 11.95 shipped.
